UROGENITAL
SYSTEM


Chapter 11
UROGENITAL SYSTEM
 Combination     of excretory and reproductive
  system.
 Kidney is the main excretory organ of
  vertebrates.
  •   Concerned with the elimination of metabolic waste
      products.
 Ovary    is the female reproductive organ or
  gonad.
 Testis is the male reproductive organ.
  •   These are concerned with the production of the
      reproductive cells (egg and sperm).
 Ducts are passageways for the excretory
 waste products and reproductive cells from
 where they are produced to the outside.
 Ductsof
 excretory and
 reproductive
 systems are
 intimately
 associated
EXCRETORY SYSTEM
 Waste  products of metabolism include:
  urea, ammonia, uric acid, creatinine,
  various pigments, inorganic salts, and
  water.
 These are excreted through the kidney.

 Nephrons are the functional units of the
  kidney, where the blood is filtered with
  these metabolic wastes.
 Metabolic wastes pass to the outside
  through ducts.
ARCHINEPHROS/HOLONEPHROS

 Excretory organ of primitive
  vertebrate ancestors.
 It is composed of paired
  archinephric ducts, located
  on the dorsal side of the body
  cavity and extending the
  length of the coelom.
 Each duct has a pair of
  tubules to a segment.
 The tubules open into a
  coelom through the
  nephrostome.
ARCHINEPHROS
 External glomeruli
  drain the coelomic
  fluid and are located
  in close proximity to
  the nephrostome.
 Larvae of hagfish and
  caecilians have this
  type of excretory
  organ.
                             Tissue fluid discharge from
                              glomerulus

                              outside.
THE ANAMNIOTE KIDNEY:
            PRONEPHROS
 1st embryonic tubules in
  all vertebrates
 called pronephric
  tubules because they are
  the 1st to develop & are
  anteriorly located
 The duct that drains the
  pronephros is called the
  pronephric duct.
 The pronephros is
  temporary & function
  only until glomeruli &
  tubules further back
  become functional.
THE ANAMNIOTE KIDNEY:
PRONEPHROS
 Some   have external
  glomerulus, while
  most have internal
  glomeruli.
 Internal glomeruli are
  small knots of arterial
  capillaries surrounded
  by the Bowman’s
  capsule.
 Renal or Malphigian
  corpuscle is composed
  of the glomerulus and
  the Bowman’s capsule

 Selective reabsorption of
  water and other
  constituents may occur as
  fluid passes down the
  tubule.
THE ANAMNIOTE KIDNEY:
PRONEPHROS
 Pronephric  tubules
  function only until the
  end of the larval stage in
  amphibians and
  equivalent stage in fishes.
 Glomus is the term for
  several united glomeruli.
 Pronephric chambers
  are larger chambers
  formed by expansion of
  the pronephric tubules.

          OPISTHONEPHROS
 The   kidney mass caudal to pronephric region
   Functional adult kidney of lampreys, most fishes
    and amphibians
   Drained by mesonephric (archinephric) duct
 Mesonephrossimilar to opisthonephros but
 mesonephros is the structure that appears during
 embryonic development in reptiles, birds, and
 mammals.
   When it serves as an adult kidney, it is sometimes
    called opisthonephros.
FATE OF NEPHROGENIC MESODERM (RED) (BOOK FIGURE
15.8).
THE ANAMNIOTE KIDNEY:
         OPISTHONEPHROS
 It is different from
  pronephros because it
  lacks segmental tubules
  that is exhibited by the
  pronephros.
 Kidney tubules and
  coelom are rarely
  connected.
 Renal corpuscles with
  internal glomeruli are
  typically present.
THE ANAMNIOTE KIDNEY:
           OPISTHONEPHROS
 An opistonephric
  tubule has a narrow
  neck adjacent to the
  renal corpuscle.
 Neck is followed by
  the:
     collecting  portions,
      which joins the
      archinephric duct
      and;
     secretory part,
      which forms the
      proximal and distal
      convoluted tubules.

THE ANAMNIOTE KIDNEY:
         OPISTHONEPHROS
 Ureter-like duct is
  formed by the union of
  collecting ends of
  several collecting
  tubules.
 This may open into
  the archinephric duct
  or may connect
  independently with
  the cloaca.
THE ANAMNIOTE KIDNEY:
          OPISTHONEPHROS
Opisthonephric kidneys of
  fishes
 Males have longer kidneys
  than females.
 Efferent ductules connect the
  testes with the archinephric
  duct.
 Archinephric duct becomes the
  ductus deferens which serve
  for sperm transport.
 Female fishes have the
  posterior ends of their
  archinephric ducts enter a
  common urinary sinus inside
  a small urinary papilla.
THE ANAMNIOTE
KIDNEY:
OPISTHONEPHROS
 Urinary  papilla
  enters the cloaca in
  sharks.
 It opens directly to
  the outside in fishes
  without cloaca.
 Seminal vesicles and
  sperm sacs may
  develop for the
  temporary storage of
  spermatozoa.
THE ANAMNIOTE KIDNEY:
         OPISTHONEPHROS
Opisthonephric kidneys of
  Anurans
 Tubules are more
  concentrated on the
  posterior end and are
  confined to the posterior
  part of the abdominal
  cavity.
 Dorsally located,
  retroperitoneal, and dorso-
  ventrally flattened
 Kidneys of the females have
  no relation to the
  reproductive system.
THE ANAMNIOTE KIDNEY:
            OPISTHONEPHROS
Opisthonephric kidneys of
  Anurans
 In males, certain anterior
  kidney tubules became
  modified as efferent
  ductules/vasa efferentia.
     They connect the testis with
      the kidney .
     Archinephric duct
      serves to transport
      spermatozoa and urine.
     Urinary bladder is
      thin-walled and serve for
      the temporary storage of
      urine.
THE AMNIOTE KIDNEY
 Three  types of kidneys
  that appear in succession
  during embryonic
  development of amniotes
  are: pronephros,
  mesonephros, and
  metanephros.
 The metanephros
  persists to become the
  adult kidney.
 Pronephros appears in
  the very early stages of
  development but soon
  degenerates.
THE AMNIOTE KIDNEY

 Mesonephros develops
  as the embryonic kidney
  in reptiles, birds, &
  mammals
 It is sometimes called the
  Wolffian body and the
  mesonephric duct is called
  the Wolffian duct.
 It functions for a short
  time after hatching or
  birth
THE AMNIOTE KIDNEY
   Wolffian duct serves as
    urinary passage but when the
    metanephros becomes
    functional, it degenerates in
    the female, but persists in the
    male.
   Remnants of the
    mesonephros are associated
    with the reproductive system.
       This include the epididymis,
        ductus deferens, seminal
        vesicle, paradidymis, and
        ductus aberrans in the male.
       In females, remnants include
        the epoophoron and
        paraoophoron in the dorsal
        mesentery of the ovary, and
        canal of Gartner in the
        mesentery of mammalian
        oviduct.
THE AMNIOTE KIDNEY:
            METANEPHROS
 Arise posterior to the
  mesonephros.
 Nephron is the functional
  unit.
 Each nephron is composed
  of renal corpuscles,
  secretory tubules, and
  collecting tubules.
 Differentiation of
  metanephros begins when a
  metanephric bud sprouts
  from posterior end of the
  mesonephric duct.
 Nephrogenic mesoderm
  surrounds the bud.
THE AMNIOTE KIDNEY:
             METANEPHROS
 Bud  grows anteriorly together with the
  metanephric blastema, and eventually gives
  rise to metanephric duct or ureter, and
  pelvis of the kidney.
 Fingerlike outgrowths from the pelvis invade
  the kidney blastema and become collecting
  tubules.
 S-shaped tubules are organizing within the
  blastema.
   One  end grows toward and encapsulates a
    glomerulus to form a renal corpuscle.
   The other end grows toward and empties into a
    collecting tubule.
THE AMNIOTE KIDNEY

 Each kidney tubule
 of mammals is
 composed of the
 following parts:
  Proximal
   convoluted tubule
  Loop of Henle with
   ascending and
   descending
   portions
  Distal convoluted
   tubule.
THE AMNIOTE KIDNEY
   Capsule is a connective
    tissue that surrounds the
    kidney.
   Cortex is the outer kidney
    substance containing renal
    corpuscles.
   Medulla is the inner
    substance which contains the
    loops of Henle and common
    collecting tubules
   Renal pyramids are the
    conical aggregated loops and
    collecting tubules.
   Renal papilla is a blunt tip
    of each renal pyramid that
    project into a funnel-shaped
    outpocketing, the calyx of
    the pelvis.
COMPARATIVE ANATOMY OF THE
METANEPHROS
Reptiles
 Kidneys restricted to
  the posterior half of
  the abdominal cavity
  and confined to the
  pelvic region.

 Mammalian kidney
  Compact, bean-
   shaped organ
   attached to the body
   wall.
  Ureter leaves the
   hilum or hilus.
  Hilum is also the
   part where blood
   vessels and nerves
   enter and leave the
   kidney.
URINARY BLADDER

 Embryonic    origin: ventral cloacal wall and
  portion of the allantois.
 Function: temporary storage of urine before
  disposal or voiding
 It may serve as a reservoir of water in
  terrestial vertebrates.
 Water, reabsorbed from the bladder results
  from the action of an andiuretic hormone.
 This is important to prevent dehydration.
 In some lower vertebrates, it may serve as
  recovery sites for some ions that are scarce in
  their niche.
URINARY BLADDER: FISHES
 It is an insignificant
  enlargement of the
  conjoined posterior
  ends of the urinary
  ducts.
 Not significant
  because fishes are
  immersed in water.
 Many marine fishes
  can extract fresh
  water from sea water
  by drinking sea water
  and quickly excreting
  the salts.
URINARY BLADDER
Amphibians
 Large and thin
  walled
 It connects with
  the cloaca a short
  distance beyond
  the openings of the
  archinephric ducts.

URINARY BLADDER
Mammals
 Present in all
  mammals.
 It is muscular and
  connects to the
  outside by the
  urethra
 Lower ends of
  ureters opens
  directly into the
  bladder on its
  posterior dorsal
  surface.
URINARY BLADDER
   Much of the muscles of the
    bladder continues down into
    the urethra.
   In males, the urethra is longer
    and passes through the penis
    and open at the tip through
    the external urethral
    orifice or meatus.
   Female rats and mice have
    their urethra that opens
    independently to the outside,
    passing through the clitoris.
   In other mammals, the
    urethra enters a urogenital
    sinus or vestibule.
EFFECT OF ENVIRONMENT ON
      KIDNEY STRUCTURE AND
            FUNCTION
 Kidney is not only        Vertebrate kidneys
  involved in waste          have adaptations to
  elimination but also       their environments
  involved in the           Size of glomeruli is

EFFECT OF ENVIRONMENT ON
      KIDNEY STRUCTURE AND
            FUNCTION
 In desert forms, the
  distal convoluted
  tubules are very long
  and are capable of
  resorbing nearly all
  water, so they have a
  very concentrated
  urine.
 Animals which are
  accessible to water
  sources have shorter
  tubules and their
  urine is less
  concentrated.
EXTRARENAL SALT EXCRETION
 Present   in vertebrates that live in salt-rich
  environment or that live in arid
  environments.
 Chloride-secreting glands are present on
  the gills of marine fishes.
 Rectal glands are present in
  elasmobranchs.
 Nasal or orbital glands are present in
  marine reptiles and birds that feed on fish
  from salt water.
 Sweat glands in mammals eliminate some
  salt of the body.
REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
 Vertebrates  exhibit sexual
  reproduction.
 Zygote results from the union of male
  and female gametes.
 Ova and spermatozoa are produced in
  the gonads, the testes and ovaries
  respectively.
 Gonads are derived from the mesoderm.
 Deferent ducts in male, and oviducts in
  female transport gametes to the outside of
  the body.
REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
 Deferent  ducts are usually the
  archinephric or the Wolffian ducts which
  also transport urine from the kidney.
 Wolffian ducts in amniotes persists to
  become the ductus deferens.
 Accessory sex organs bring the germ
  cells together.
   Reproductive  ducts
   Associated glads
   Intromittent or copulatory organs.
FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE
SYSTEM
OVARY
   Two layer of a typical ovary
    in mammals are:
     1. cortex, outer with
        developing Graafian
        follicles.
        - ovum with each follicle is
        nourished by follicular cells.
        - at maturity, certain
        follicles push to the surface
        of the ovary and either
        rupture to liberate the
        ovum (ovulation), or are
        reabsorbed.
     2. medulla, which is inner and
        made up of connective
        tissue, blood vessels,
        lymphatic vessels, smooth
        muscle, and nerve fibers.
OVARY
 Ovarian follicles vary
  in size depending
  upon the season when
  it is examined and
  upon the volume
  characteristic of each
  species.
 Larger ova in lower
  forms because of their
  yolk content.
 Ovary attains
  maximum size during
  the breeding season in
  some vertebrates
OVARY: FISHES
 Paired or fused.
 Only the right ovary fully
  develops and the left
  degenerates in some
  elasmobranchs.
 Most teleosts have
  saccular type ovaries
  which produce large
  number of ova during the
  breeding season.
     Ripe ova-->central ovarian
      cavity--->oviduct--->outside
     Adult teleosts lack cloaca
      and have separate openings
      from urinary and digestive
      systems.
OVARY: FISHES
 Most  are oviparous
  while others are
  ovoviviparous.
 Some have fertilized
  eggs that develop

  ovarian follicles into
  the coelom.
MAMMALIAN OVARIES
 Located in the lumbar or
  pelvic region.
 Considered small in
  relation to the size of the
  body of mammals.
 Placental mammals have
  compact ovaries with an
  antrum within the
  graafian follicles.
 Covered by germinal
  epithelium from which
  oocytes arise.
 Some of this oocytes
  become mature ova
  during the life of the
  individual.
MAMMALIAN OVARIES
   Ovum escape the ovary
    when the wall of graafian
    follicle ruptures.
   Cells that remain after
    follicle rupture organize to
    form corpus luteum.
   Corpus luteum is one
    source of progesterone
    needed to maintain
    pregnancy.
   Before ovulation, estrogen
    is the predominant
    secretory products of the
    follicle cells.

    1. Endometrium – uterine
       lining which becomes highly
       vascular under the stimulus of
       hormones.
    2. Myometrium – thick
       muscular layer
    3. Visceral peritoneum – thin
       outer serous membrane.
    - Menstruation results from
       degeneration or sloughing of
       the uterine lining followed by
       hemorrhage from blood
       vessels.
    - Estrogen and progesterone
       control these endometrial
       changes.

       Testes
         Seminiferous
          tubules “sperm
          factories”:
         Produce the sperm
         Mature
          spermatozoa will
          move to the rete
          testis  efferent
          ductules
          epididymis
          ductus deferens
         Also an endocrine
          gland as they
          produce
          testosterone
ELASMOBRANCHS’ TESTES
 Paired symmetrical
  structures
 Suspended by
  mesorchium
 Other fishes have
  elongated and
  lobulated testes.
AMPHIBIAN TESTES
 Shape corresponds to
  body shape
 Elongated in
  caecilians, short or
  irregular in urodeles
 Oval or rounded and
  more compact in
  anurans

 Oval rounded or pyriform compact structures
 Snakes’ and lizards testes’ have onetestes that
  occupies farther forward in the body cavity than the
  other
BIRDS’ TESTES
   Oval or round-shaped
    and changes in size
    depending on the
    period of the year.
MAMMALIAN TESTES

   Tunica albuginea a thin
    tough fibrous envelop of the
    testis
   Scrotum serves to regulate
    the temperature ideal for the
    testes to be able to produce
    viable sperm cells
   Vaginal sac is a diverticulum
    of the peritoneum into the
    scrotum
   Tunica vaginalis is the
    extension from vaginal sac      .
    that comes in close contact
    with the tunica albuginea

 Maybe found in the pelvic
  region or descend into a
  scrotum
 Some mammals’ testes
  descend into the scrotum
  only during the breeding
  season
 inguinal canal - passage
  between abdominal
  cavity & scrotum
SPERMATOZOA
 Vary in vertebrates
  and are several times
  smaller than the ova
 All possess tails for
  locomotion
 Number produced by
  the human male is
  about 4ml or 300
  million per ejaculation
 Boar produces about

Urogenital system chap

  • 2. UROGENITAL SYSTEM  Combination of excretory and reproductive system.  Kidney is the main excretory organ of vertebrates. • Concerned with the elimination of metabolic waste products.  Ovary is the female reproductive organ or gonad.  Testis is the male reproductive organ. • These are concerned with the production of the reproductive cells (egg and sperm).  Ducts are passageways for the excretory waste products and reproductive cells from where they are produced to the outside.
  • 3.  Ductsof excretory and reproductive systems are intimately associated
  • 4. EXCRETORY SYSTEM  Waste products of metabolism include: urea, ammonia, uric acid, creatinine, various pigments, inorganic salts, and water.  These are excreted through the kidney.  Nephrons are the functional units of the kidney, where the blood is filtered with these metabolic wastes.  Metabolic wastes pass to the outside through ducts.
  • 5.
